most people agree with you here and there are producers who are still pushing this sound if you were wondering.
but this thread has been done to death.

The only way to be sure of making it good is do it yourself, internet-forum commentators don't do a lot but where you put the effort in does

Bass music as a whole (125-140 stuff) is better now than it ever was. If you can't see that, you're an idiot. There's so much good stuff coming out every week. You just have to dig a little deeper than what gets uploaded to youtube under the tag 'NEW DUBSTEP 2010 EXTREME FILTH'
The evolution of house, garage and other 125-135 stuff is really just incredible right now, and there's a whole slew of innovative stuff still coming out at ~140.

I know what your saying but i dont think anything went wrong, the sounds just evolved, the same way as jungle evolved into the drum and bass. I for one would love people to still be making beats like old mystiks, loefah, D1, skream etc from 04-05 and its a shame that tribal percussive dark sound has been somewhat lost. But as someones already said, if your not happy with it, try and revive the sound yourself.
And in the mean time:

But Brightons dubstep scene was built on cans of K and wraps of K was it not?! At least thats the vibe I get from an emcee mate of mine who lives down there.

what a lot of people don't seem to realise is music evolves ffs
if all dubstep sounded exactly like it did 6 years ago then how fucking boring would that be? 6 years of more or less the same stuff? that's why music evolves
old skool hardcore didn't last forever, it split into jungle and happy hardcore. jungle didn't last forever and garage went as far as it could go before people started doing other stuff with it
this attitude that people have that dubstep is not allowed to change at all is fucking stupid
